VBS Starts Today

So one of the boy' favorite weeks during summer is the week of Vacation Bible School.  They love seeing their school friends and meeting new friends.  This week is also perfect for me as I am trying to get our den cleaned and packed and it is VERY difficult with them. 
While they were at VBS I had a little work to do.  I needed to get a quote out. Praying that works out.  I was able to get a bag and by bag I mean one of the leaf yard bags full of toys to go to charity!  I was able to get 2 bags, smaller ones, to the trash.  I also was able to get 2 boxes full of stuff for eBay.  Mostly books, but still progress.  To make it better the two boxes for eBay I was able to get pictures of everything too!  YAY!
The boys had a blast a VBS.  They made masks, but Danny will not show me his until Friday.  He is so funny.  John Michael on the other hand could not wait to show his off!

Well the rain meant we did not go to the new house.  I am a little sad, but I know we will go tomorrow. 

Basketball Starts Again

This morning we were late again. I swear I have to get in bed earlier or something. I think I am just on overload and it is effecting my routine, which is NEVER good. I am going to work on that hard.
The boys had great days at school. They are sure pumped about the Fun Run tomorrow. They also got to dress out of uniform today, which is always super important to them. It is the small things. They both looked to handsome in their jeans.
While they were at school I scrubbed their bathroom and just worked around the house. I got the shopping list for Thanksgiving ready. I am not sure when in the heck I will be able to go to the store though. It took me all week to find the time to get a gallon of milk so we will see what happens.
There was evidently a shooting at the Birmingham airport tonight. Not sure what all of that is about but it confirms even more that I will not be flying anytime soon.
I had a photo shoot today right after school, which went pretty good. More on that at http://www.monicaannephotography.com/ I am loving being so busy but I am also a little stress just because I feel like I have no time. It will all work out though and it is definitely a blessing that I am thankful for.
Basketball officially started today for Danny. He had his first practice at 5:30. It was a lot of conditioning and skills, but it went great. It is a huge team...15 boys I think so I am thinking playing time will be limited, but oh well, it will be fun.
Progress reports came home today and I am super proud of both boys. They are loving school and their reports show that! YAY! This was definitely a blessing.
While we were eating dinner Danny's tooth fell out. He has been messing with it for about a week, but refused to let me pull it. I am so thankful he did not swallow it. He is lucky! He is looking forward to the visit from the tooth fairy! Fun stuff I just hope I have some cash, any cash. LOL!
Well, it is ten after 11 and I am off to bed! Peace out everyone. Know that you are all in my thoughts in prayers.
PS...trying to figure out when I can go see my vampires on the big screen. Praying it will be sooner than later.
